  This would be a win win situation as it will help to monetize our station and also help our Music Artists to sell their music and is critical for us to support them. Please implement this ASAP.
  I also have an iTunes affiliate code for our artists that also have their music for purchase on iTunes. This should also be implemented for more sales of their music.
  Thank you.

  I would like all the songs that I have imported should be linked to my own website store where the CDS involved would be purchased. That feature was used in the previous “Live 365” network . I am competing with Amazon and I-Tunes in selling my CDs. From my online store, “Sensay.com”

  This should be implemented as soon as possible; as others have mentioned, it would be one way to offset broadcasting costs while monetizing the individual stations should they wish to take part in this

  Since they're killing iTunes, it'll be an easier job now for just adding Amazon 😁

  The ability to have our Amazon affiliation on the link is a win-win. Let's do it!

  We had this feature with [a different provider]. We used this feature and listeners purchased tracks.

  The listener hears a fantastic track played, presses the 'BUY NOW' button, and up pops a selection of music outlets, such as Amazon, ITUNES etc.....I think it's a terrific idea!

  A widget on my old station did just this: displayed the last 10 songs played with an Amazon link to the item.

  Super great idea, especially for my station which plays a lot of indie and lesser known artists who can really use the boost.

  I'd even be fine if Live 365 was collecting the affiliate cash and paying it out as part of the ad revenue sharing.

  This has been considered for 2 years. Any idea when or if it's going to be implemented? I'd love to generate an income from affiliate links.

  Please allow this feature as soon as possible to offset costs, thank you.

  I feel this is a much needed feature and deserving of broadcasters.

  The ability to click on a previously played track shopping cart will take you to apple music there is STILL NO AFFILIATE program.
  Can you step this up? this would provide well-needed income for stations even if it is a pittance.

  YES. We need the revenue generation and that's why it's there and offered in an audio player.

  I had this once before on my station page. NEVER got a cent out of it!

  The sooner, the better. Not everybody uses Apple iTunes, especially in the UK.
  
  Or if you can't (for whatever reason) add a function to have other affiliate programs per tune/track, make the iTunes link optional, so that the station broadcaster can make the choice.

  This is a great idea but seeing that stations have to own their music and we are the ones promoting the songs, we should be getting a kick back or percentage of the sales from this iniative.

  If I am not benefiting from my audience purchasing songs from iTunes, Apple music or Amazon it should not be allowed. If people can purchase my songs, then why listen to my station. The feature to purchase songs should be removed.
